The good news is, my damage system is working again!
The bad news is, it's all wonky.
When I hit play and enter the area, my character immediately takes three hits of damage with no explanation whatsoever. She's nowhere near the crab enemy, so I have no idea as to why this is. On top of that, I tried to go back into working on the health item sprite, and from there I realized what the core issue is.
My character is not responding properly to collisions.
I'm going to have to get a lot of help the next time I work on this, because I've scoured google and youtube for answers but have found nothing. I really hope I don't have to redo the entire character coding, but since it's definitely my character that's causing issues, I'm really worried that that's going to be the case.
The Braid tutorial I've been watching was good, but it's level of helpfulness ran its course and I looked for another one.

This one is alright, the narrator is rather clumsy at times but they've helped me fix the damage system so I think it's worth a shot.
